I ran into that stuff in the first 10 minutes of my first dive a couple weeks ago. My hand still looks pretty disgusting.

NOT fun stuff.

Stick with the hydrocortisone ointment/cream or even try my Prep H treatment..I know it sounds crazy but it kind of sort of helped with the red swelling aftermath from my last encounter. Also, try not to scratch it, this stuff can really drive you crazy :wacko: Good luck ! Sue
